VOCIA VOICE OVER IP INTERFACE (VOIP-1)
The Vocia Voice over IP Interface (VOIP-1) facilitates a direct connection from SIP-based VoIP extensions. The interface permits live, real-
time paging using any Page Code within the Vocia system. When calling into a VoIP line, a number of software congurable voice prompt
functions are available including Page Code selection, Zone status indication and Page Now indication. A DTMF sequence of tones can
also be programmed in the software to be associated with a Vocia Control Input Event.
The VOIP-1-2 features support for up to two VoIP lines and the VOIP-1-4 supports up to four lines.
In the event of a busy Zone status, the VOIP-1 supports page stacking and Store-and-Forward message queuing.
The VOIP-1 supports Pre-recorded Messages when a Message Server (MS-1) is present in the system. The VOIP-1 also supports
Emergency Paging functions when a Vocia Life Safety Interface (LSI-16 or LSI-16e) is present in the system.
Features
• Provision for two or four VoIP lines (model dependent)
• Device monitoring
• Power via 24V DC supply (dual redundant inputs)
• Software-congurable signal processing
• CobraNet® audio and control over a single Ethernet cable
• Dual CobraNet Ports for redundancy
• Rotary switches for device identication
• IP30 Compliant
• CE marked, UL listed and RoHS compliant
• Covered by Biamp Systems 5-year warranty

VOCIA VOICE OVER IP INTERFACE (VOIP-1) FRONT PANEL
Setup and Use
The Vocia software provides the interface for conguring and programming the VOIP-1. The information supplied by this manual relates to
hardware installation, physical connections, and device information. For more details on software setup, please consult the Vocia Software
Help File.
Front Panel Information
The VOIP-1 LEDs are as follows (from left to right when viewing the front of the chassis):
1. 24V DC power 1
2. 24V DC power 2
3. Fault
4. Activity
5. Status
6. Line 1 Status
7. Line 1 In Use
8. Line 2 Status
9. Line 2 In Use
10. Line 3 Status (functional for VOIP-1-4 model only)
11. Line 3 In Use (functional for VOIP-1-4 model only)
12. Line 4 Status (functional for VOIP-1-4 model only)
13. Line 4 In Use (functional for VOIP-1-4 model only)
Power (Chassis Indicator)
The VOIP-1 has two power indicators. If power is applied to one or both 24V DC power connectors, the corresponding LED will be on.
• Off – The corresponding power connection is not in the working voltage range.
• Solid green – The corresponding power connection is receiving 24V DC power.
Fault (Chassis Indicator)
There are two types of chassis faults that will be reported, depending on the severity of the problem. Audio may still be passing, but if the
condition causing the warning is not corrected, a failure may occur.
• Off – Normal operation.
• Flashing – A warning has occurred, meaning some aspect of the unit chassis is not performing within normal specication.
• Solid – A Fault has occurred, meaning some aspect of the unit has failed and audio may not be passing.

VOCIA VOICE OVER IP INTERFACE (VOIP-1) FRONT PANEL
Activity (Chassis Indicator)
The VOIP-1 has an Activity LED that will illuminate to show the conguration status of the unit.
• Off – The unit is not congured.
• Solid green – The unit is congured
Status (Chassis Indicator)
The VOIP-1 has a tri-color Status LED that indicates the health of the hardware.
• Solid green – Unit is powered-up and working normally.
• Flashing amber – Will be shown briey during the power-up self-test and will turn steady green upon a successful start.
• Solid red – The unit experienced a problem during the power-on self-test.
Status
• Flashing green – When trying to complete SIP registration.
• Solid green – When SIP registration is complete and the VoIP line is available.
In Use
• Off – No incoming call activity.
• Solid green – Incoming call or connected call.
Note: The third and fourth ‘Status’ LEDs and ‘In Use’ LEDs will remain extinguished at all times on the VOIP-1-2 model.

Rear Panel Information
Power
Caution – Due to potential energy hazard, connections to the Aux Power 24V DC inputs must be
made by qualied electrician or other qualied person as required to conform with all local codes.
The VOIP-1 requires a 24V DC power source to operate, and is capable of accepting dual 24V DC inputs for redundancy. Both power
sources may be connected concurrently, however each must be capable of supporting the full 30-Watt load of the unit (inputs are not
intended to load-share). Loss or return of either power source will not result in an interruption to normal operation as long as one of these
power sources remains functional. Monitoring of power sources is selectable via the Vocia Software.
The power connector is a four-way 5.08mm standard header with mating pluggable screw terminal block with cable restraint. When power
is present the corresponding front panel green power LED will illuminate.
Pin Function
1 DC Power 1 24V(+)
2 DC Power 1 24V(-)
3 DC Power 2 24V(+)
4 DC Power 2 24V(-)
Device ID
The rotary ID switches on the VOIP-1 give the unit a unique Device ID. The switches are in hexadecimal format. All
VOIP-1 units must have a unique Device ID to function within a Vocia Paging World (i.e. it is not possible to have
two VOIP-1 units with the same Device ID of hex 07). To assign a Device ID of hex 07, turn the MSB switch on 0 and
leave the LSB switch to 7. To create an ID of hex B7, turn the MSB switch to B and turn the LSB switch to 7. Device
ID switches should be set using a 0.1 inch (2.5mm) to 0.12 inch (3.0mm) at blade screwdriver. More information on setting IDs and the
hexadecimal numbering scheme used in Vocia can be found in the Vocia Help File.
Please note: changes made to the Device ID while connected to the network require a power cycle in order to take effect.

Network
The VOIP-1 is designed to be used in a single Vocia World and utilizes the Vocia CobraNet LAN to communicate with the rest of the Vocia system.
The unit has two monitored RJ-45 Ethernet network connectors that allow a redundant connection to be utilized if required. The primary connection
will always have priority over the Secondary connection. The secondary connection can be disabled in Vocia software if not required. The RJ-45
connectors use two LEDs to indicate Ethernet link and network activity (see table below).
Left LED Right LED Description
None None No Data Connectivity or CobraNet activity
None Flashing green Link established
Solid amber Flashing green Link established and CobraNet activity detected. The unit is acting as a CobraNet Performer.
Flashing amber Flashing green Link established and CobraNet activity detected. The unit is acting as a CobraNet Conductor.
Flashing amber None CobraNet fault. Check cabling and conguration for errors.
The maximum distance between any unit and an Ethernet switch is 328 feet (100 meters) when using copper cabling. Additional Ethernet
switches and/or ber-optic cable can be used to further extend distances between units on a network. Please note that CobraNet limits
network extensions to seven hops (one-way transmissions) within a network.
VoIP Connections
Each RJ-45 VoIP connection will support up to two lines. The connection will act as a third-party SIP endpoint.
The VOIP-1-2 unit can support up to two VoIP lines via 1 RJ-45 connector.
The VOIP-1-4 unit can support up to four VoIP lines via 2 RJ-45 connectors.
